Synthetic Self-Retracting Lifelines

Synthetic Lifeline Self-Retracting Lifelines

While safety is the most important factor when working at heights, having the right fall protection equipment can make a significant difference in comfort and safety too. Our synthetic self-retracting lifelines (SRLs) offer a lighter, more flexible solution. environments where corrosion and other extreme conditions aren’t a concern.

If your application will have these considerations, we recommend you use a steel cable SRL.

Synthetic Lifeline Advantages

We offer two synthetic lifeline options - webbing and EdgeCore™ - both of which provide several unique benefits over cable. They are lightweight so it's easier to move freely while working at height, as well as gentle on materials. These lifelines won’t cause damage if they come into contact with materials that could be easily scratched or dented by steel.

EdgeCore™ Material: Lightweight Strength

For those seeking a blend of strength and flexibility, EdgeCore™ material offers the best of both worlds. Made from Kevlar® cables encased in a UV-resistant composite jacket, EdgeCore™ synthetic self-retracting lifelines deliver impressive performance:

• 40% Lighter - EdgeCore™ weighs significantly less than a comparable 3/16" galvanized cable, reducing user fatigue without compromising safety.
• Superior Strength - Despite being lighter, EdgeCore™ boasts over three times the break strength of standard steel cables, providing unparalleled durability for the toughest jobs.
  

Another benefit to choosing EdgeCore™ - FallTech offers a free AXIS fall clearance calculator, and these are built into the program for superior accuracy! This calculator is customizable, intuitive, and provides a wide range of documentation and visualizations to make safety easy for you.
